Lily Allen: She’s Back And She Means Business

Lily Allen: She’s Back And She Means Business

She’s back. Holding the trophy as one of the nations much loved, and much-missed singer phenomenons: Lily Allen has made her ultimate comeback to the music industry.

Vowing to never return to the industry four years ago, her eagerness for a ‘normal’ life proved less than exciting “I wasn’t good at staying at home all day, it didn’t suit me” she explained, “I’m creative, it’s just who I am.. I missed the positive feedback about my music from my fans. I missed the rush of performing. I missed the free clothes and handbags and the good tables in posh restaurants. I did!.”

In terms of PR, Allen’s comeback has been a strategic success. Media savvy, over the last year she has teased us with small features in chart songs and Christmas adverts (we all remember the John Lewis ad), making her return a gradual process. So it wasn’t a surprise when she announced she was releasing her third album ‘Sheezus’. Her lyrics, avant –Lily, are still the opinionated, controversial songs we all know and love her for. It’s clear that the smart thinking Allen knows how to gain media coverage and exposure when it comes to gossip – her recent Twitter banter with models over one of her tracks ‘Insincerely You’, she is well aware that her songs gain the attention of the media…

Her decision to cut ties with the music industry and instead become a full-time mother, wife and fashion entrepreneur, was risky. In hindsight, she is one of the few celebs willingly to choose to fade into the background of showbiz, eager to reverse her high status back to ‘human’. With the power of PR however, her face began to appear more frequently; landing fashion events, interviews, track features and magazine covers, which have all worked in her favour of regaining her lost stardom.

Has Allen made it seem that in fact, you can have it all? Indeed it seems so. Not only has she come back into spotlight seamlessly, she has also been able to keep up being a loving wife and mother of two. She has become even more of an admiral and inspirational icon to the public than ever before. Her fearless and courageous temperament has shown to us all, that you can relinquish anything.
